Your Charging Cords Fit Perfectly in Lego Minifigures' Hands

Finally, a use for all those boxes of Lego sets you won't let your parents get rid off.

Your Lego minifigures have held shields and lightsabers, but there's a more practical — adult, even — use for their C-shaped limbs. See how cluttered your desk is now? Imagine how clean it would be if you had little Lego people gripping all your cords in a neat and orderly fashion.

A member of the Sugru community named Andreas found this hack by using the moldable silicone rubber that resembles modeling clay to hang up his minifigure on the side of a table for easy organization. But you can use any kind of sticky material to mount your little Lego dude, depending on whether or not you want to move him later.

Everything from audio cords to iPhone charging cables can fit in their little yellow hands. Which begs the question: how have we not been taking advantage of this since 1978?
